Languages

The World Loanword Database contains information on
loanwords,
source words and
and other words in 395 languages.

Of these, 41 are called recipient languages, because we are interested in the loanwords
that they have received from other languages. For each recipient language, there is a
vocabulary.

The loanwords in these languages come from 369 different donor languages. These are
the languages from which the recipient languages have taken the loanwords. 15 languages
are both recipient languages and donor languages.
